The WIC food package is changing! The updated food packages provide more choice and variety
WIC Services Remain Open
The WIC program is not yet funded for Fiscal Year 2026. Despite the federal government shutdown, the North Carolina Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) is operational and remains open for business. The Cumberland County WIC office is open, including the WIC office located on Ft. Bragg. WIC staff are available to serve participants. We will provide additional information if any changes to WIC operations are necessary due to the ongoing government shutdown. Participants can view their available benefits on the EBT Edge app.
Participants who have questions about WIC or require WIC services may call Cumberland County Public Health’s WIC office at (910) 433-3730.
